Over at Daily Blog there is an interesting review of the AFL-CIO blog, the comments are interesting as well.
The space the AFL-CIO created that it labels "blog" appears to me to be no different than the rest of the site: it's simply offering information (which is fine) but it prevents debate--a long-time hallmark of the AFL-CIO's culture that pre-dates the Sweeney Administration. No one can post comments. You're simply asked to absorb more propoganda and be interested in a one-way conversation.Hat tip to Justin M for the tip.

Starwood Hotels just launched a new blog with contributors from various travel writers. They seemed to have done it right, with the ability to post to delicious, digg, etc. It's called The Lobby
